The Shunra and the Schmetterling

More about the book

Through the lens of a child's developing consciousness, the narrative explores the wonders of the world with a kaleidoscopic view. The protagonist's observations are presented in vibrant, fluid fragments that capture the essence of childhood without the nostalgia of adulthood. The boy's deadpan perspective on the human experience transforms ordinary moments into magical realities. This beautifully translated work melds fiction and poetry, making it a remarkable addition to the author's oeuvre and a delight for readers who appreciate both genres.
